In Canada in the 1950s & 1960s, pediatricians & midwives gave free "D-drops" to mothers of babies born October-March. You can still buy them at grocery & drug stores and they are very cheap. As are pills & softgels for adults. I started taking D3 daily ~20 yrs ago (1-4g/day depending on the time of year and time outside), around the time I joined this forum. Added zinc during the winters when everyone around me is coughing & sneezing. Started K2 ~4 yrs ago. I rarely get sick and haven't caught Covid. If I do get a scratchy throat I might increase my doses and go to bed early & it is gone the next day.

Ancel Keys was probably rewarded by the fame & recognition for his anti-fat & anti-cholesterol research. Can you imagine if he were alive today? He would be a billionaire Big Pharma consultant.
